Kelda was tidying up, her mind spinning with disbelief.
Silas had been into this Calliope for a while now? Why her, of all people?
But if Silas liked her, who could really stop him?
Kelda had been by Silas’s side for so long, and he always saw her as just a kid. Yet, Calliope, someone else's
girlfriend, had somehow caught Silas’s fancy.
Kelda muttered under her breath, frustration bubbling up inside her.

Meanwhile, everyone in the conference room was shocked as Calliope entered.
Silas introduced Calliope to the group, announcing she was his wife and that everyone should heed her words:
The room fell silent. No one dared to speak at first. Then, the room erupted into chatter.
“Mr. Myers, we thought your marriage would only be a temporary thing, a game. Did you need to introduce her
to us?”
“Yeah, Mr. Myers, we didn’t need to meet her. Aren't you two going to part ways soon?”
“She doesn’t understand our business. Heard she turned the Jewell Group into a mess. | think she should stay
away from here!”
“Exactly, running a company isn’t for just anyone.”
Whispers and murmurs filled the room. No one had expected Silas to bring Calliope before them, let alone give
her such importance. And he wanted everyone to follow Calliope’s lead as if her words were his own.
If Calliope messed things up, wouldn't that throw the whole company into chaos? A woman with no business
acumen had no place here; she’d only be a liability.
Many of the higher-ups had heard rumors about Calliope and were quite disdainful of her presence.
Mr. Myers might owe her a favor, but they certainly didn’t. Why should they be dragged into this? “You don’t
think much of her?” Silas’s smile vanished, replaced by a dangerous glint in his eyes.

The room fell silent again.
Sensing Silas on the verge of losing his temper, Calliope gently pulled him back.
With a smile, she addressed everyone, “There's no need to worry. | don’t know much about business and have no
interest in running the company. Silas just wanted to introduce me. | won't be issuing orders like he does!” “You
don’t need to know anything to be in charge,” Silas replied, glancing at Calliope. “Besides, | know you can do it!”
Calliope let out a nervous laugh. “I have no tfor that. | prefer to take it easy!”
The group exchanged glances, now even more disappointed. They had hoped Calliope would at least try to prove
herself, but she outright admitted she wasn’t up to the task and preferred to slack off.
She really didn’t seem to match Mr. Myers. How could a genius like Mr. Myers choose someone like her as a wife?
